20 men can build 56 m long wall in 6 days. What length of a similar wall can be built by 70 men in 3 days?
Correct Answer: Description for Correct answer:
Let the required length be x m.
More men, More length (Direct proportion)
Less days, Less length (Direct proportion)
Men 20 : 70
:: 56 : x
Days 6 : 3
Therefore, \( \Large \left(20 \times 6 \times x\right) = \left(70 \times 3 \times 56\right) \)
\( \Large x = \frac{70 \times 3 \times 56}{20 \times 6} = 98\ m \)
